Why I'm building this.
AI adoption is growing fast, and the benefits are real — but there's a side effect nobody's solving. People have stopped thinking before they turn to AI for answers.
I've caught myself doing it: even for problems I could easily work through on my own, my first instinct now is to prompt AI rather than think it through myself. I'm not using my critical thinking skills, and they're getting weaker because of it.
I see this everywhere — in colleagues, in friends — and the research confirms it's real and measurable. What worries me most is the next generation. Kids growing up with AI as their go-to for everything may never build these skills in the first place.
That's not a technology problem — it's a human problem. And right now, nobody is solving it.
